We verified the damping effect using shear link type of friction dampers on wood frame construction which are generally said to high stiffness.
We firstly evaluated the basic performance of the devices by static loading tests, and then we evaluated the damping effect against earthquakes using shaking table tests. Moreover, using time history response analysis, the range of the analysis could follow the shaking table test value.
As a result, the performance of the damper was stable in both static and dynamic tests, the analysis value and the experimental value showed high consistency up to the large range of deformation.
